    I don't think there's a right or wrong here...whatever gives you the most 'relief' to do or not to do...if that makes sense. Like someone else here, I go by my clothes...(I moved recently and have no idea where my scale is lol) - But that's me....you 'know' when you feel lighter and clothes feel comfortable etc.

    i do it quite often; every morning to get my daily true weight and numerous times throughout the day just to see how much it fluctuates but it doesn't upset me like it may others. i see if i am doing well or that i may have to increase my water intake. my weigh-in day is every wednesday am. it may seem like i dwell on it but i don't. i personally don't do measurements but my trainer has done them a few times. i actually am due for another round of measurements- thanks for reminding me :smile:

    I pretty much weigh myself every other couple of days. My "official" weigh in day though is every Friday. I also measure here and there, but not on a consistent schedule. I know I should though.

    I am a daily weigher. I think it keeps me more accountable.

    I weigh myself too often. First thing in the morning, then at the gym, in the evening, sometimes in the afternoon. It's really addicting but at the same time very frustrating.

    Every single morning, but I only count it as a weight loss if I get the same result 3 days in a row.

    ^^ This while I was losing.

    Now that I'm *trying* to maintain... I've very intermittent, probably about 1-2x a week.

    Morning & night. I know my body so well now, i can pretty much tell what im going to weigh in the morning.
    It doesn't bother me in the slightest weighing twice a day, in fact i like it, it keeps me on track.

    I was doing Insanity (sprained ankle yesterday) and I would only weigh myself on my fit test days every 2-3 weeks. I don't think once a month is too little. If you are content with that, then that is right for you. I tried weighing myself everyday, but because I also run and bicycle I have gained muscle (which weighs more than fat) and being a female, around that time of the month the numbers a little deceiving.

    If you are happy with once a month then stick to it. It is a personal preference really.

    Every morning before I have anything to eat, right before I get in the shower. It should be my lowest, right??

    I weigh myself every morning after I shower and go to the bathroom. That way if I need to I will work out extra if I feel I put on too much weight. I like to make sure I stay on target and this is the best way for me.

    Almost every morning. It's as much scientific curiosity as anything else. But what I'm not doing is beating myself up if I've gained a pound or two; as long as the overall trend is towards my goal (and it is!).

    Several times a week. I input whatever results I have if I'm near a computer. I figure more info is better and the app smooths out the results over time.
